Abstract

"This comprehensive book provides an overview of cancer therapeutics and covers different innovative treatment approaches for cancer. The initial chapter gives a detailed overview on cancer progression and disease diagnostics. The following chapters focus on different cancer treatment approaches, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy, immunotherapy, nutritional assessments, targeted therapy and Nano therapeutics. It also highlights the importance of cancer genomics, disease advancement, personalized medicine and psychological support for cancer patients. Emphasis is also given to the many challenges in the area of designing cancer treatment and designing clinical trials. The complete book also presents cancer management with different cancer treatment modalities, including pharmacogenomics and drug reactions. This is a unique and comprehensive piece of work that not only highlights the disease treatment modalities but also focuses on many challenges in the area of designing cancer treatment and even in designing clinical trials.

The contributing authors are experts in this field of cancer treatment. By familiarizing readers with the latest developments in this complex field, the book offers a valuable resource for clinicians. Researchers and medical students will also benefit from this comprehensive text." --publisher
